cowboy cookie returns?

Agree about Loram, clouting & Lanham should also add in Moggo such a cult figure back in the day.

Ellis has been impressive in his last two Foxhall meetings but I can’t recall him being that consistent over two meetings before. It’s the best I think I’ve ever seen him ride. It’s clear he has a point to prove & will certainly have given Mayfield something to think about. They will also have seen how good Adam is to have around the team in terms of generating spirt. I think he has proven why he frustrates me so much to, clearly a very very good rider in there & one that could develop into a major force if he could find that level of consistency. Would I have him back at Foxhall in 27 100% yes! Mayfield will have so tough decisions to make over the winter in terms of who to leave out & bring in.

The report rumour that Lawson had been sacked was just that then. Got to get a home win tomorrow those pesky Stars aren’t far behind.

To be honest though part of the lack of interaction is down to demographic of the crowd. desperately need to get some young blood in to the sport!

So after lasts night Final do we think ITV will be in interested in getting more involved in speedway & showing more or is that it?

The problem when there has been so little development of the sport outside of Poland in the last 30 years. For a long time Sweden Denmark & too a lesser extent the UK has relied on the excess of Polish riders floating about & riders who were happy to ride in 3 or 4 leagues. With the new polish regs next year the level of the championship is going be a lot lower so those 2 top teams might have no option but to move up. Speedway in the uk must be the only sport & possibly one of the only areas in life where people don’t aspire to be the best they can be & reach for the top. That speaks volumes for how it’s run & the lack of meaning that the competitions have.

I think the Ipswich promotion is spot on. You have to work with Poland. They have spent the last 35 years since the fall of communism building their league speedway. They are not going way.

I get he impression that Mayfield want to go their own way with team building & do something different in 27. Bringing Ellis back would probably go against that & with. Month of the season left no really worth it if they are going a completely different route. Makes sense for Northampton Ellis could b in their plans for next year

I think Mayfield will be well aware of what can be achieved with the right team. They will know about the packed Foxhall Heath last year for the play off final.

The Ipswich promotion certainly sees this, the question is can they take the rest in the same direction. I really believe that if Coleman can’t make the changes required then the sport is doomed this is very much last chance saloon.

Brennan has to ride at number one as he is still top of the Ipswich averages nothing to do with team management they are the rules.

Maybe Emil is the GP Pole?

I think King will be too expensive from an average point of view next year.

Any way on to 27 1 2 Rew 3 Brennan 4 New pole using Wroclaw connection 5 Musilak 6 7 Will we see Rew back next year I think we might. Brennan is a no brainer after his struggles this season A young exciting rider using the Wroclaw connection seems to be feasible i would have Musilak back if the averages allow. As for the reserve berths no idea. I guess if Pedersen does well he could be the number 6 As for the number 1 do they go the Doyle route or possibly try & temp Emil back? Or will we see someone new? A lot depends on league structure & points limit but a refresh over the winter is required. Ive only left King out because I think he’ll be expensive on his average after cracking 2026.
